For the last day of "Instant breakfast series", I chose pancake. As this is a kids favourite. This recipe is a keeper and whipped up in minutes. Banana pancake is a very easy pancake,which involves just 4 ingredients. Those ingredients are readily available in our pantry. I saw this recipe in a viedo and tried immediately. It was so soft and fluffy.This can be prepared by a beginner very easily. The key to get a fluffy pancake is ,beating the eggs well.The recipe called for cinnamon, but you can substitute it with vanilla or almond extract.Try this easy pancake and let me know the feedback.

* Take the banana in a bowl. The banana has to be ripe. This banana ,gives the smooth texture to the pancake.

* Mash the banana using a hand blender . There should not be any lumps .

* Now add the eggs and beat it. whisk the eggs as fluffy as possible, this acts as a rising agent to the pancake.

* Once the eggs are whisked, add the flour and cinnamon powder to the bowl.Adding flour is purely optional. I liked to add ,to give the pancakes a structure. But you can also cook the pancake without the flour.

* Heat a pan and scoop a laddle full of batter. It will spread automatically.Let it cook well .

* Now flip the pancake over and cook for another minute. But don't overcook the pancake, else it will become rubbery.

Serve the pancake with maple syrup or honey.

Notes:* We can skip the addition of addition of all purpose flour to make it fluten free.* Adding eggs make the pancake fluffy.* It also replaces the addition of baking soda and baking powder.* We can also top the pancakes with some chopped fruits.* Instead of cinnamon ,we can add vanilla extract.
* We can make the pancakes in batches and freeze it.
